Belle was stunned because she could never imagine him saying something like that, however, she recovered herself and laughed most proudly and arrogantly.
“I must fail you, King of the Shadow, I’m not interested in man!”
This camouflage dressing and the ordinary-looking man was Allen in disguise, his eyes were full of bloodthirst and hardness, and his lips raised.
“It doesn’t matter as long as I’m interested in you!”
“Alas, how absurd it is for you, I wonder if you’re incapable?”
Allen did not give in and nor did Belle, these two rivals confronted each other face to face.
One was blood and iron, the other was fierce and proud, neither of these two rivals was willing to compromise for they knew who gave in would lose!
They stood on the ground for half an hour, neither of them moved and they grew even more careful and cautious.
It was scary that one should have such willpower and perseverance. And coincidently, Belle and Allen had it both, which made this first rivaling confront full of menace.
Belle thought to herself, the Shadow Army was indeed a sharp knife of Country Z, King of the Shadow was as dangerous as legend went, I should better tell my people to stay away from this man as possible as they could, how dangerous he was!
Allen thought to himself, The Prince of Dark Night was indeed something, he would not be an easy target, if only he were not their enemy.
“My capability is not your concern but since you’re here now, why don’t we sort out our problems, I wonder if The Prince would give Shadow Army an explanation!”
Allen asked in his low hoarse voice while squeezed his cold and dark eyes and looked across.
“Dark Night was partially responsible in that arms deal incident but Shadow Army should not hold my people in hostage either!”
Belle’s face was as cold and she stared right into Allen’s eyes.
“I have a proposition for you, The Prince, and let’s see how you feel about it?”
“What kind of proposition?”
Belle frowned, not knowing what he was up to.
“Let’s match, if you lose, you give me double amount of that arms deal, and if I lose, I gave you back your guy and we call it an end, how’s that appeal to you?”
Allen looked incisively at Belle’s face.
“Why not?”
Belle raised her eyebrow and agreed with delight, “What kind of match would it be?”
“How about we race to knock that small black door up there using all ways necessary, fighting, gunshot and speed for example, and who knock first wins!”
Belle followed Allen’s sight and looked ahead.
The abandoned factory had two floors and was piled up with steel pipes, wire and steel board. At a glance, she noticed the small black door at the staircase on the second floor.
“Deal!” Belle grinned confidently with a certainty in her eyes.
Her competitiveness was lit up in an instant and she determined to win no matter what and test the real strength of King of the Shadow while she was at it.
Belle thought so and so did Allen.
Allen continued to stare at Belle as though he was trying to make out her thinking and his real purpose was to see how good this Prince could be through this match.
Both of them were occupied with their own thinking but nothing could conceal their excitement and competitiveness and it was already quite intense by their looks and posture.
“The Prince is indeed ambitious and brave but I won’t give in!” Allen said and looked at Belle with absolute confidence.
Belle stood her ground and did not flinch a bit at Allen’s stare since she knew she would lose if she did and she would not allow it.
She laughed with pride and replied, “Bring your best!”
The war was about to begin and they grew even more intense. The Shadow Army retreated to the side and made for the room!
Kevin gave Belle a worrying look and Belle responded to him with a reassuring look.
Only then did Kevin back away but still remained in a position that was ready to combat any time. He put on full alert in anticipation of any danger that might happen to Belle so that he could rush to her rescue should it happen.
“Let here be the starting point but to be fair, we should wear the same type of weapon.
It has three bullets loaded and the bullets inside had been modified beforehand so that they can only cause pain but not death. Anyone who got shot will be eliminated from the competition!”
Allen walked to the starting point and took two handguns of the same type and magazine clip with three modified bullets inside.
Belle took the gun and magazine clip, remained suspicious at the gun.
She quickly took apart the gun in a series of smooth actions and checked the parts inside carefully, only after she was sure it was safe did she put it back again, the whole set of actions was unbelievably cool.
The gun was back on her hand in no time.
Belle held on to the gun, blew at the gunpoint then aimed at Allen’s head.
The Shadow Army was startled by Belle’s move and pointed their gun at Belle’s head immediately readied to send her to death if she dared to shoot at Allen.
Being pointed with a gun, Allen frowned slightly and showed a cold and fierce light in his eyes.
On the other hand, Belle was at ease and exhibited a fearless and pride posture.
She lit up her lips and smiled, turning around the gun with her finger, muttering the model of the gun.
“A 9mm SPP handgun, 282mm long, 1. 3 kg of weight, a capacity of 30 bullets, light but powerful, not bad!”
“Indeed The Prince from Dark Night.”
Allen was not surprised since being the leader of Dark Night, he would surely be more familiar with weapons than others.
“Alright, let’s roll!”
Belle glanced at Allen, intimidating and arrogantly, as though she was the invincible king on the war field.
Allen raised his lips and laughed, then with a bright light flashed in his eyes, he shouted, “Match begin!”
In an instant, both of them leaped out from the starting line.
